+1 for them, I think Aaron and Rosey just got their cars done by them at AJ's annual tint day.

Carbon hatch looks amazing, can you give us weight details compared to stock once you get that lexan?

Re: 2G auto S/A daily

Hell of a deal you got on those, nice! I think I paid about the same for some used KSports which sucked.
Also sweet on the 34 lbs weight saved on the hatch alone, and on the top end of the car. Do you have the lexan for it yet?

Re: 2G auto S/A daily

Thanks Brad. Car is kinda getting out of hand. I didn't know I was gonna take it this far.

Just sent an email to frontlinefab to see how long of a wait it will be for a 2G awd bolt in tank. So I'm waiting for a response.

There's gonna be a crazy part out come September if I don't end up keeping my black shell.

Re: 2G auto S/A daily

Harness showed up today! Thanks Andrew. Should work for what I need to accomplish as long as tech doesn't get to picky.



Got my Greddy MBC today to. (Mail lady was like wait you have 2 )
From what I read its similar to a grim speed 1 click per psi. Got it on a trade so no money out of my pocket so ill give it a shot.



Gauge setup and steering wheel. BECAUSE RACECAR!!!



Heading out to get some ATF +4 so at the very least get this tranny mounted to the short block.
